Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of shield machine cutters, and in particular to a shield machine cutter that is resistant to eccentric wear. Background Art
[0002] Shield machines are increasingly used in major projects such as urban subways, railway and highway transportation, energy transportation, underground passages, etc. They have the advantages of fast excavation speed, high construction quality, low labor intensity, economy, and environmental protection. The cutterhead is the core component of the shield machine, and the cutter is the specific executive element of the excavation, which is equivalent to the teeth of the shield machine and is the main component to realize the excavation function of the shield machine. Shield machine cutters can generally be divided into roller cutters, scrapers, cutters, leading cutters, and protective cutters. During the use of the roller cutter, when the seal of the cutter bearing retaining ring fails, it will cause debris such as ballast, coolant, and even cement slurry to penetrate into the bearing, making the bearing unable to operate effectively, that is, blocking, thereby causing eccentric wear of the roller cutter ring.

By providing a first sealing ring and a second sealing ring, the connection between the upper end cover and the cutter shaft and the lower end cover and the cutter shaft are sealed respectively. By providing a third sealing ring and a fourth sealing ring, the connection between the upper end cover and the cutter hub and the lower end cover and the cutter hub are sealed respectively, so as to prevent lubricating oil leakage, and debris such as ballast, coolant and even cement slurry from penetrating into the cutter to damage the bearing, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of cutter ring blocking and eccentric wear.
[0004] However, when the hob is working, the cutter hub is in a rotating state relative to the upper end cover and the lower end cover, which will cause wear to the third sealing ring and the fourth sealing ring. Therefore, after the hob is used for a long time, the wear of the third sealing ring and the fourth sealing ring increases, resulting in a decrease in sealing performance, causing debris such as ballast, coolant and cement slurry to penetrate into the bearing, causing eccentric wear of the cutter ring.

[0036] The bearing 30 can be a tapered roller bearing, and two groups are provided. The two groups of bearings 30 are sleeved on the knife shaft 10. A groove 212 is provided on the inner wall of the knife hub 21. The retaining spring 100 is clamped in the groove 212. The retaining spring 100 abuts against one end of the outer ring 32 of the bearing 30. A limiting boss 43 is provided on the end cover 40. The limiting boss 43 abuts against one end of the inner ring 31 of the bearing 30. A first limiting portion 11 and a second limiting portion 12 are provided on the knife shaft 10. The first limiting portion 11 abuts against the other end of the inner ring 31 of the bearing 30, and the second limiting portion 12 abuts against the other end of the outer ring 32 of the bearing 30.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the sealing member is arranged at the end of the end cover 40 and can slide along the axial direction of the blade shaft 10. In an optional embodiment, the specific connection relationship between the sealing member and the end cover 40 is as follows: the end of the end cover 40 is provided with an annular groove 41, the annular seat 80 is slidably arranged in the annular groove 41, the annular seat 80 is provided with a slide post 81, the end cover 40 is provided with a guide hole 42 that passes through the annular groove 41, and the slide post 81 is slidably inserted in the guide hole 42. The sealing member is fixedly arranged at the end of the annular seat 80, and the sealing member can abut against the end surface of the end plate 22. The sealing ring 70 is arranged at the outer periphery of the annular seat 80. More specifically, the outer periphery of the annular seat 80 is provided with an installation groove 82, the sealing ring 70 is clamped in the installation groove 82, and the sealing ring 70 contacts the side wall of the annular groove 41. The sealing member can be a rubber pad 50.
[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The elastic member is arranged on the end cover 40. More specifically, the elastic member is arranged in the annular groove 41 of the end cover 40. The elastic member can be a spring 60. Furthermore, the spring 60 is sleeved on the outside of the sliding column 81. The two ends of the spring 60 are respectively in contact with the inner end surface of the annular groove 41 and the end surface of the annular seat 80.
[0039] The elastic member acts on the seal so that the seal pressure abuts against the end of the blade body 20 . More specifically, the elastic member is used to push the annular seat 80 toward the opening of the annular groove 41 so that the seal pressure abuts against the end surface of the end plate 22 .
[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cutter body 20 is provided with a cutter ring 24, which is located at the periphery of the cutter hub 21. The outer periphery of the cutter ring 24 is provided with protrusions 241 evenly distributed along the circumferential direction.
[0041] The implementation principle of the shield cutter with anti-eccentric wear in this embodiment is as follows: when the shield cutter with anti-eccentric wear in this application is in use, the cutter shaft 10 is fixedly mounted on the cutter head of the shield machine. When the shield cutter with anti-eccentric wear in this application is in operation, the cutter body 20 can rotate relative to the cutter shaft 10. When the cutter body 20 rotates, the seal member presses against the end surface of the end plate 22, and the seal ring 70 contacts the side wall of the annular groove 41, thereby sealing the inside of the cutter body 20 to prevent debris, coolant, and even cement slurry from penetrating into the bearing 30.
[0042] When the shield cutter with anti-eccentric wear of the present application is working, the seal is pressed against the end face of the end plate 22 under the elastic force of the elastic member. Therefore, when the cutter body 20 rotates to make the end face of the end plate 22 contact with the seal by friction, causing the seal to be worn, the seal can always be in good contact with the end face of the end plate 22 under the elastic force of the elastic member, thereby ensuring the sealing effect. When the seal is worn, the elastic force of the elastic member pushes the annular seat 80 and the seal to move along the axial direction of the cutter shaft 10. Since the moving distance is short, the friction between the sealing ring 70 and the side wall of the annular groove 41 is small, thereby ensuring that the sealing ring 70 has a good sealing effect, thereby ensuring that the shield cutter with anti-eccentric wear of the present application has a good sealing effect after long-term operation, thereby delaying the decline of the sealing performance and preventing the eccentric wear of the cutter ring 24 caused by the infiltration of debris such as ballast, coolant and cement slurry into the bearing 30.
[0043] The blade body 20 of the anti-biased wear shield tool of the present application is composed of a blade hub 21, an end plate 22 and a sealing gasket 23. The end face of the end plate 22 is annular, and the width of the annular end plate 22 is greater than the width of the blade hub 21. Accordingly, the width of the seal can be set to match the width of the end plate 22, so that the width of the seal can be set wider, thereby increasing the sealing contact area and improving the sealing effect.
[0044] Since the seal is pressed against the end face of the end plate 22 under the elastic force of the elastic member, the friction force when the cutter body 20 rotates is increased. Therefore, a protrusion 241 evenly distributed along the circumferential direction is provided on the outer periphery of the cutter ring 24 to increase the reaction torque of the cutter ring 24 from the cut rock wall when the cutter ring 24 rotates, thereby preventing the cutter body 20 from failing to rotate.
[0045] The embodiments of this specific implementation are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. The same components are represented by the same figure marks. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
